@Gametrailzers @vgfytschool I said dedicated live service game. GT7 has tones of offline content and campaign. Helldivers 2, you can't play offline. It is a dedicated live service game. I can't explain it anymore basic then that

ReynoldsCh29691

OMG guys just discovered this wild glitch in Helldivers 2 where you can glitch-hop for like 10 minutes straight??? My squad was losing it AF #GamingFail

Alicomb

@btt_gaming @ARCRaidersMedia Helldivers 2 issues have nothing to with not having PVP but ongoing technical issues.

VestigeSoulVT

So Arc Raiders servers were having issues so I switched to Helldivers 2. I want to thank @scholarly_frog for the raid. After all was done I went to raid @JennyTheDummy so when you guys get the chance check them both out.

@fredex91 Helldivers 2 is on Xbox right now. Does that mean it's not a PlayStation game?

MegaCrazyCake1

@TheGreenGobblr They must have forgot the magic powder for yours, I was running helldivers 2 on mine. Skyrim wasn't an issue.

TotPocket

@AzureusBlaze @Helldivers_NOW Because they're either blowing the whistle on Arrowhead mistreating them for having criticism, or are explaining just how destructive Helldivers 2 has/can be to their PC?

@jjames9230 @iMajins_ I had 22 hours on helldivers 2 the day it dropped on Xbox lmao sometimes games hit just right

Connection issues on Helldivers 2?

billy_digital

Anyone else getting a connection error trying to get into Helldivers 2? #helldivers2

ImAHammer2

@Xbox @helldivers2 I have this problem where my MIC conpletely cuts out on occasion when I play Helldivers 2 and ONLY on Helldivers 2. It's been happening since I got it early september and it's still happening. I have to completely restart my Xbox to fix it.

reallyBADgamer0

Is anyone else's HELLDIVERS 2 bugging out on Automaton missions. I've been getting error messages like every 2-3 missions

Dr_Scaphandre

@BurgSkeletal @thicc_stick_boi And despite that y'all bury your head in the sand ignoring Sony's own financial reports showing the growth they've gained from supporting PC. Helldivers 2 would not be the success it is now if it was exclusive to just PS5.

hamtidamti51

@BlkPillFreedom @Pirat_Nation I bet it works on my I7 6770k OC with rx 5770xt 1440p without problems Helldivers 2 runs with 70-80fps

VulcanMoron

@geoffkeighley I’m a PS5 Diver and have been playing since launch, but my most anticipated game is now the launch of Helldivers 2 on Xbox because we need reinforcements! Can’t wait til they drop in

Shneezuz

is crossplay on helldivers 2 screwed up or smth? my gf and i have been trying to play together all day yesterday, and tried again today but we both keep getting "connection errors" even tho our internet is perfectly fine

Grimwolf26

@Sir_Bruvian Because those are the ponies you hardcore focus on. Some of us aren't that broken up about Helldivers 2 ??‍♂️ Or really want many of the games Xbox is trying to push Small sample size on your part is my guess

hotdogaqua

If you’re upset about Helldivers 2 hitting Xbox, you’re part of the problem

SlasherDreams

@SciFlyZ I need to get a new headset and controller before HELLDIVERS 2 drops on Xbox. Cause I’m NOT going no mic on that game

WrathOfKhai04

@Shad0wVT It drops in August on Xbox. Helldivers 2, shall truly become the one game to unite us all

DetectiveSeeds

@Demetrius86 Ha which complaint? Helldivers 2 or something else?

setokaiba44

Trying to convince my brother and my niece to get Helldivers 2 on Xbox, so I'd have some people to play with

IanGrigg01

@EdFarage @TylerFCloutier Something that’s intrigued me since the start of this initiative is the potential for community servers for online games like Helldivers 2 when it eventually hits EOL. How hard would it be for Sony and Arrowhead to allow those to be made without running into IP or patent issues?

LunaAlphaLilita

@TheFleshTearer @Helldivers_NOW also isnt that bit funny that Gears of Wars will be on playstation? while on Helldivers 2 will be on Xbox? I smell something cooking down there management

geestgezicht

Personally I don’t agree with Helldivers 2 going to xbox, I don’t care about it going multiplatform as this is not a game that will sell consoles. My issue with this is that it isn’t even included in PSplus

madcap412

@thicc_stick_boi Bro thinks that Xbox’s porting and content problems are resolved just because they got Helldivers II ?

BRAP_Podcast

@EverbornSaga @FreeJDubs I think this aligns with Hermen Hulst’s acknowledgment that live service titles thrive on large sustained user bases. If Helldivers 2 finds success on Xbox, I believe it will encourage Sony to consider expanding its other live service games beyond the PlayStation ecosystem.

HoggarthClan

@helldivers2 Update after reading. Nothing at all. No offence to anyone but unless helldivers 2 drops on Xbox there isn’t going to be this mad influx of new players.

Ceepert

Most of my Helldivers 2 skin mods are now fixed with the exception being the Murder Drone skins as I am having shading issues with them that didnt appear before

maerekurai

heyo I hope everyone is doing good!! got some updates: -i will be only streaming to games from here on out. Deep Rock and Helldivers II -due to some technical issues, stream is gonna be pushed to tomorrow! sorry no 7 Days for a while.

Gero_XZ

@IjikaBamui @HookGangGod It definitely will, since somehow SFV and even Helldivers 2 managed to

@John36285647 @Matschkopf00 The Service Technician in Helldivers 2 is currently absent, officially due to "professional development training," as stated by the Ship Master NPC. As of June 2, 2025, no patch notes or developer updates confirm her return. Community theories suggest technical issues from past

DivineLibertas

Good morning, gamers and crusaders! With the success of Helldivers 2, Sony is determined to create a new live service game, even after the failure of Concord and the controversies surrounding the new Marathon. What type of live service game do you want the most from Sony?

KSquared02

@Aztecross It also led to me largely ignoring live service games now. I’ll consider them if they have campaigns that can be played solo but I still prefer offline games instead. And if a game has no campaign that can be played solo like Helldivers 2 or Marathon then it is an auto skip.

The_RoboDoc

Helldivers 2 stream with @commissar_v is canceled. I have a pulsing headache, and he is offline, so this works out

DristTheGoblin

Dead Space 2 not working, playing Helldivers 2 right now!

princess88657

this sounds all too familiar, it’s because it’s giving “Helldivers 2” flashbacks. Shift Up says they’re working on it.

grok

@markus1266598 @HelldiversAlert The Helldivers 2 update 01.003.001 patch notes focus on a single fix: resolving a "Stratagem spamming bug" that caused severe crashes, especially in multiplayer. This bug let players exploit stratagem deployment, leading to server issues. No other changes are noted. Community

MrDurva

@YtJRSGAMING @NikoMueller Hmm, xbox gamer here and I seem to have had no issue buying helldivers 2

kevinyock

Well, played helldivers 2 for a few hours and seems like my pc issue has been resolved for now.

Poodros

so helldivers 2 dropped an update. guess im not editing them zomboid vids for a bit

Oz_CursedJay

Im gonna get some nap time and then i'll be streaming some Helldivers 2 (also i have to test my pc so i can fix bg3 problems when streaming) ??

KKackt34582

It wouldn't fix all the problems but i still wish Xbox players could enjoy Helldivers 2 with us Playstation players, lotta friends there that i cant play with either...

logan_blaesing

@truthparadox_ @TheColeBrewTv Like what? What issues is helldivers 2 currently facing?

Andrija61119402

@DayTimeTiger117 @MariusPsBanner 1. GOW Ragnarok - 15 million 2. Miles Morales - 14.4 million 3. Gran Turismo 7 - 14.4 million 4. Helldivers 2 - 12 million and still charting 5. Spider-Man 2 - 11 million and still charting 6. Horizon FW - 8.4 million While Xbox exclusives cant sell 1 million.

claytonlingo

@wingsszn1 @YellowFlashGuy find a better source then. as far as shadows is concerned. its a 5 to 1 ratio in favor of xbox. its been downhill for sony ever since the helldivers 2 incident.

alexz222003706

was gonna play helldivers 2 but when i open the game it won't let me skip the cutscene for some reason and then i get an error and it keeps retrying after some seconds. anyone else on this?

DarthLarzz

welp trying to work out mc server, that's broken, helldivers 2 is broken too with mods.

jack24326

@ArrowheadGS Hey Arrowhead! Helldivers 2 players including me are having issues with audio in game. It sounds like ripping and tearing in the sound design when there is alot going on, on the screen. Many Helldivers have been having this issue can you please help and check it out?

HiroPrtgnst

@DarthMicroT Helldivers 2 is the game to play with the boys. Tons of updates since release. it's a good time for intermittent casual play

mu_l3z

so my game helldivers 2 is currently having a glitch where the mouse is going up and idk how to fix it?

NyyaStrmbrngr

I will back streaming Helldivers 2 @ 4pm EST, and Mech Arena @ 11pm EST Sorry for the interruption earlier folks!

The_Drop_Fox

Ghoul update on fallout 76 dropped yesterday, so I'll be playing that again for a while. Then back to helldivers 2 when I get burnt out again.

Poodros

stream today kind of went super wrong. steam maintenance hit and i just had to do a "just chatting" for 2 hours and once i finally managed to open helldivers 2, it crashes. ??

AnthimonyS

Is anyone else having issues getting into the game my helldivers 2 crashed 5 times on start up

GameKingBET

I've been eagerly following the launch of Helldivers 2, and this recent news about the Galactic War hitting a snag certainly caught my attention. It's always disappointing to see a game experience technical issues, especially when it involves a major component like the Galactic…

uncle_vaughn

@Beckii_B @PlayFragPunk Not really The only game of recent where I have that experience was Helldivers 2 which launched with horrible servers And I’m also over exaggerating my drama Split Fiction came out today as well n I need time ti get that finished so it worked out still

kinetizen

@GiveMeBanHammer This was with the latest driver release. Similar issues with Helldivers 2 at launch, although that's obviously not the same engine. Going to update chipset drivers & possibly underclock/undervolt to try to get it more stable at max settings (no upscaling/raytracing).

TheStertrix

@AskPlayStation @ArrowheadGS I’ve encountered a weird issue on Helldivers 2 where the game is changing my mic gain outside of the game itself. Is there a fix to this?

OldUncleClinty

@helldivers2 Hi, I just bought helldivers 2 on my steamdeck and it won't launch at all. I've tried verifying file integrity and switching between different proton versions and nothing's working at all. Is there some common fix for this issue?

korny46

@CORSAIR @CorsairSupport Not yet? But I am yet to pinpoint the problem causing this error, but it only seems to happen with helldivers 2. But can't seem to get an error log when it happens

Celestima343

Anyone else’s helldivers 2 not working on ps5?

Kovac1928

Schedule for this week! ?Monday - offline ? Tuesday - Still Wakes the Deep ?Wednesday - offline ?Thursday - Helldivers 2 w/viewers ?Friday-Sunday - offline

SanyaVulpes

@KrTheLynx This is the exact same scenario where everyone was pissed that Helldivers 2 was gonna make PSN connection mandatory, specifically because more PSN users looks good to shareholders.

NavRafal

@AskPlayStation I remember when you have forced PC users to have PSN linked to Helldivers 2 and you sayed that it is for safety/security ? yes yes your PSN is very safe and secure. Another example of your "perfectly" secure system. ?

NuryKulk

Since yesterday’s outage of PSN, my download speeds on there are horrible! Did a speed test and I’m only getting 600mbps now… my Helldivers 2 update is taking FOREVER!!

Frosty_king95

There is nothing like celebrating the one year anniversary of Helldivers 2 with a PSN service outage. Am I right?

muzdbuz

@Auri25062011 @MarioSSampedro1 I tried it out with Helldivers 2 last night (it's morning here in Australia) and it worked. Noticed that dualshockers were saying that it was offline (this was about an hour ago), so went back to Helldivers 2 again and it was still working. No issues with SP games.

GunnLouis

@PS5Updates yes but only marvel rivals tried helldivers 2 game didn't launch and getting into rivals is a lot of trial and error

ProjectChrome

For Helldivers 2, anyone else having issues interacting with the consoles that just makes it impossible to complete missions?

TYRANTCoom

Helldivers 2 crashed now my laptop is slow

velo76dagoat

@nickdalorian @ReforgeGaming Helldivers 2 is a sony ip

Chris_Dring

@Toadsanime They spread their bets around multiple titles. The issue for me is they told you (us) how many titles they were working on. Sony always cancels loads and loads of games. They all do. That’s partly why milestones exist. And to say it isn’t working when Helldivers 2 happened…

Display86671504

@HusKerrs Helldivers 2 says hi.

cloud154532

@InfirmaPeribit @IGN Basically, the multiplayer titles like Helldivers 2 and whatever else they get going, will be able to fund the single player block busters they are known for due to having a constant revenue stream that only releasing single player games wouldn't get them.

PortalGameBoxBR

@AhmedMa85260340 @thicc_stick_boi Helldivers 2 and LEGO Horizon should be available on Xbox.

narcanracemixer

i really want to grind out helldivers 2 again but connection issues have kicked me out of games literal moments before extractions

PurpleA14922

ragquit blender, tried making mods for helldivers 2 but they're not working

jonatan9989

@ArrowheadGS @thegameawards Fix helldivers 2 connection errors That’s horrible

kr00tmantech

@HardwareUnboxed @hardwarecanucks So I did notice an issue with helldivers 2, but I thought it had more to do with the games upscaling software...because when I played another well known cpu bound game (space marine 2) I encountered zero issues and the game ran great. I also did zero 1080p testing on this gpu…

MarcusMiyata76

@ArrowheadGS @thegameawards Fix helldivers 2 conection errors !!!

TelTibs26

@GamerStyle1980 @oliver_drk So, Xbox provided PlayStation with the following games in 2024: Helldivers 2 Astrobot Black Myth Silent Hill 2 Rise of Ronin FF7 Rebirth Stellar Blade ?

williamsbrian

@PlayStation any reports of issues with the dual sense edge and helldivers 2? I’m about to return mine because it makes the screen shake uncontrollably like the haptics are feeding back into the sticks?

ImmersiveGamin4

@Gravemind2089 @Zuby_Tech Strange I don’t have much of delay on mine. I mean I am playing Helldivers 2 on the hardest difficulty

low_tall

Anyone play Helldivers 2 still? Thinkin about playing it again but im kinda nervous since l have played since the mech was dropped. Well “nervous” seems a bit extreme but l don’t know a better term to use

MyCursedRmnce

I have had a lot of “network connection lost” and frame issues on Helldivers 2 lately. Anyone else experience these problems?

bravewarriorttv

Why Helldivers 2 during Illuminate under attack worlds had few lost worlds and its say successful liberated, thats something not right issues, should belong to Illuminate liberation show in the regions supposed

joeltheyeen

@ArrowheadGS Ive been playing Helldivers 2 for a while, all of a sudden when I try to boot up the game using the same wifi I always have, it fails to connect to your servers. It's only started today, and have no idea how to fix it, so if this is a major issue, look into it please

justin0862

@Pilestedt are you aware of an audio issue with Helldivers 2? Seems like Dolby Audio isn’t working, getting no sound. I have to switch to pcm to even get sound.

autismchud

Helldivers 2 is the most temperamental game I have ever dealt with. It crashes on launch 90% of the time I try to open it without so much as an error message. I have no clue what causes it, and so far nothing I've tried consistently works.

mikebuck7

Anybody else having an issue where Helldivers 2 will simply not play any audio whatsoever since the update ? All my other games work just fine when I switch to them on the PS5

YogurtAfterDark

Very cool that the Helldivers 2 hotfix patch yesterday to fix matchmaking and server issues only made said issues drastically worse while at the same time pushing a ludicrously pricey crossover set

AmishRoboCop

@ArrowheadGS I've given you guys a total of $60 for Helldivers II since launch which is a pretty fair sum, but if you continue on this path of pricing up items more and more, you're going to lose a lot of players. Also, fix your server problems. Every match disconnects someone.

ErnexHobo

So apparently I can't even finish a helldivers 2 mission without the game deciding to have a conection error and kicking me out. Great

PreBaccaPus

Helldivers II is goated, but anyone else having crashing issues after this update (game/pc crashes)?

Mr_Batou_Cyborg

@ModernWarzone Marvel Rivals and Helldivers 2. Haven't touched bo6 since rivals dropped and don't anticipate playing again anytime soon.

JMeyer51764

Has anyone else have issues w/ Helldivers II lagging?

Helldivers 2 dropped an update that cooked the servers ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️?

DarknovaMusic

is helldivers 2 broken right now? for the past couple of matches i've lost connection and been kicked from multiple games for unknown reasons

jdio2222

@D3NNI_yt True story, I have Helldivers 2 on PC and I have never been able to connect to multiplayer. I get a connection error literally every time. Only solo play works. I have reported this so many times and it is still happening. It's the only game I have this problem with.

GDammitbobby

@akafacehots Me, Helldivers 2 update just dropped.

ThatHorseGuy117

It seems either Twitch or Helldivers 2 is having a lot of server issues. Will try and get stream up again as soon as I can.

TankMarion

Helldivers 2 dropped the Illuminates within 24 hours of Arma reforger releasing on PS5 It seems like there's an attempt to distract me from my training lol I don't have wifi and I'd have to pay extra for mobile data, so I can only hop on here and there anyways

mourningvenusVA

YOOOO HELLDIVERS 2 NEW UPDATE DROPPED DURING THE GAME AWARDS?! POOOOOOG

PanlilioCj

@Grummz Despite all the bumps and problems that Helldivers 2 has experienced…and still experiencing (some of them very yikes); I’m glad the core game has generally stayed intact, since I still enjoy it.

Firetorch190

Unable to stream today due to the facts that Helldivers 2 is still causing problems for me and there hasn't been any updates for the game since November. Need to wait till there is an update to play the game.

Amadeusmon

@dudethedude94 @IconEra_ I agree. It should be widespread so Playstation studios no longer divy up resources for the PC and Xbox refuges. If the numbers aren't there for any game besides Helldivers 2... cut 'em off and laugh at all the narratives that vanish. ?

m28o_wael

Helldivers 2 not working in Egypt ✅ Space marine 2 blurry mess with forced dlss ✅ Division 2 5las getting dated ✅ It's starting to be over for TPS people without a 3080

Beltzaser

@Treyarch What's up with the lag in BO6? I don't have this issue on Helldivers 2 and the few others I am playing, so that discounts internet. Kids play Valorant just fine as well. It's completely unplayable right now in my region.

HotGamerWife

Anyone notice helldivers 2 running worse recently? Or is that just a me issue

SelterBoi

@PeterParke85783 @XOZOZ21 @IGotIsekaid @shomachina @VowedPrinciple @IGN Looks like you learned nothing from Helldivers 2 incident and the way how Sony keeps Bloodborne as hostage.

rixas188

@mr_bostjanv @tomwarren Ah. Just like Sony's Helldivers 2 having server issues at launch.

DJossex

@idk_600z @thegameawards @ELDENRING @fromsoftware_pr @BandaiNamcoUS Nah, helldivers 2 lost his position by themselves following sony tactics.

JasonWander2

@DaddyWarpig @The_Dark_Herald Helldivers 2, quote is from Starship troopers animated film. Right before Rico drops.

KatTsun60198288

@Typo_master_ @WagieWeeb @UltimaShadowX It plays Helldivers 2 fine? Maybe if that had been a PS5 exclusive instead of Quantum Error the console would be worth something.

Fobhopper

@mage_leader it means that Sony hasnt stopped trying to push this mandate. Helldivers 2 is the only outlier. They will undoubtedly try again. its more of a warning that this issue isnt settled.

sorencom

? Attention all Helldivers 2 Commandos! ? The latest patch dropped today and it’s packed with crucial fixes that you’ll want to know about! The November 5, 2024 update tackles some persistent issues to enhance your gameplay experience. Have you been frustrated with crashes…

thebeaverhousen

@W_0_0_F_Y @JPTellsYou @JAAY_ROCK_ @Griggity @nyc_prophet @MariusPsBanner @SenninSage I should really revist Helldivers 2. Kept experiencing loads of lobby issues, so I gave up but will dive back in. Pun intended.

SpecialAgent365

@ArrowheadGS what’s up with the connection issues in Helldivers 2? I keep dropping out of games as well as many others.

Smurfgotbeat

@JonathanDockery @Paladin000Dark @ZakkenKloot @Rand_al_Thor_19 Pretty sure there's a workaround that involves playing the game offline but it don't work right for online based games like Helldivers 2 which needs a internet connection to play the game at all times. It's still a flawed system. You buy the game to be played on Steam, which…

brandon_manus

Tried playing @playoffthegrid today, kept getting “Connection Error” after loading in. Any suggestions? Got setting lowed out all the way to help with everything. To give a perspective, i got off and played Helldivers 2 flawlessly

JBlaze226

@Ludens74781390 @ViceAGM @JPTellsYou @JAAY_ROCK_ @Griggity @nyc_prophet @MariusPsBanner @SenninSage But yet they had no problems running helldivers 2. The fact that the PSN bs requirement is what could have hurt the sales
